Local water has noticible Chlorine, so a campden tablet is added to the strike water to remove unwanted flavors.
1 Campden tablet, split between strike and sparge water.
1/4 teaspoon non-iodized salt (to rebalance water chemistry towards malty-forward beer) |

Notes
This recipe is named "The King's" Amber Ale because of the group of players for the board game "King's Dilemma", that the beer is brewed for.
About Striking/Sparging:
This recipe has been aimed at the Robobrew system I use. Since the grains sit a few inches off the bottom in this system, additional mash water is required to reach the desired mash thickness. If you are brewing this in a different system, consider modifying the strike/sparge water calculations.
Initial notes on kegging:
Final beer ended up being slightly lighter than expected.
Upon a taste, uncarbonated, after a day in the keg showed that it came out with a significantly hoppier aroma and more bitter flavor than I expected. Strongly and alluringly aromatic of the Amarillo hops, this takes more like an APA than an amber. malt and mouthfeel are still limited, and fairly thin, I assume mouthfeel and malt flavor would be more present if mashed at a higher temperature, or fermented with a different yeast.
Next time: set temps a few degrees higher than written, and test with thermometer. Use entire water budget minus a gallon on mash, sparge with remaining gallon by pouring over grains (when lifted from the wort).
